A liminal A liminal C*-algebra which isn't postliminal.

******************************

Let A denote Toeplitz algebra. K(H2) is liminal. [ A/( K(H2))] is *-isomorphic to C(T), so it is abelian and therefore liminal. Hence A is postliminal .But identity representation of A on H2 is irreducible and not finite dimensional, so A isn't liminal. For details see [Mur, Example 5.6.4].
